Helping You Get the Most Energy for Your Money
Wednesday, December 15th, 2010
Because cooling and heating your home accounts for almost half of your annual energy cost, it’s important to make sure that your A/C system is operating properly and efficiently and that your ductwork is free of leaks.
That’s why Aloha Air Conditioning offers a variety of cooling and heating solutions designed to:
- Save you money on your electric bill without sacrificing your comfort
- Improve the air quality in your home.
- Assist in the repair of your ductwork and the replacement of your A/C system.
By following these tips, you can maximize your A/C system’s efficiency while saving energy and money along the way.
Making Your A/C System Work For You
To ensure your A/C system is working as efficiently as possible, here are some things you can do to get the most for your energy dollars:
1. Check your thermostat
- Cool your home at 78® or warmer with the thermostat fan switch on “auto.” For additional savings, raise your thermostat to 82® or warmer when you’re away from home.
- Heat your home at 68® or cooler with the thermostat fan switch on “auto.” To save even more, lower your thermostat to 65® or cooler at bedtime or when you’re away from home.
- Install a programmable thermostat to adjust the temperature automatically and maximize your energy savings. It also helps to maintain a comfortable temperature when you wake up or return home.
- When on vacation, cool your home at 85® with the thermostat fan switch on “auto”, to help prevent mildew from developing (in most homes).
2. Use fans
- Reduce your A/C costs and keep your home comfortable by using inexpensive, energy-efficient ceiling fans to circulate the air. This will allow you to set your thermostat higher and still feel cool.
- Turning off your ceiling fan when you leave the room could save you between $3-7 a month, depending on the speed, model and age of fan.
- When buying a fan, choose the right size for the room. For example:
– 10’ x 10’ room or smaller = 36” fan
– 15’ x 20’ room = 52” fan
– Rooms larger then 15’x 20’ = two 52” fans
3. Keep your unit clean and clear
- Learn where your A/C filter is.
- Change the filter regularly using the proper size, or clean it monthly.
- Keep leaves, shrubbery and debris at least 18 inches away from your outdoor unit to avoid blocking the airflow.
4. Maintain proper airflow through your system
- Keep the interior doors and vents open to help your A/C circulate air more efficiently.
5. Keep sunlight out during summer months
- Close your blinds, drapes and shades during the hottest time of day
6. Install or upgrade insulation
- Install or upgrade insulation in your home, especially if it was built before 1982, to help reduce your cooling costs and make your home more comfortable.
7. Consider buying a new A/C unit
- If your system is over 10 years old, has undergone frequent repairs and still doesn’t keep your home cool, it may be time to purchase a new unit.
- FPL’s A/C Program can help you when shopping for a new system. Call us for a copy of the free A/C Buying Guide to help you buy a high-efficiency system that’s right for your home.
8. Maintain and service your unit regularly
- Maintain and service your unit regularly to help your unit run more efficiently

Cooling with Intertherm Air Conditioners
Saturday, October 2nd, 2010
Split System Air Conditioners have an outdoor section and an indoor section.The outdoor section features the compressor and fan, but it uses the indoor sections (such as a furnace or air handler) to distribute cool air.
Single Package Air Conditioners features all of the components of a split system but in a single outdoors section. Simply put, the blower is housed with the air conditioning components.
The structure of your home is key to selecting the proper air conditioner. For example, split system units are commonly used in the Midwest because most homes feature basements with gas furnaces. Single packaged units are more common in the southeast region where homes may have a crawl space instead of a basement – making the single packaged unit more space efficient.
